Bloodshot And Nanocybotics
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I recently watched Bloodshot, a movie in which Vin Diesel (bites fist) plays a cyborg. (grins) Yes, this movie is pretty much designed for me.
We became super excited when we saw Vin Diesel’s ‘nanites.’
They are EXTREMELY similar to the nanocybotics in my cyborg romances. There are
some variances but they are basically tiny machines that repair wounds and
other damage and they looked dang close to how I’ve always pictured them.
How is this possible?
These similarities are possible because we likely based our
nanocybotics/nanites on the same existing research and we both increased their
capabilities, projecting the most obvious improvements to the technology in the
future.
As Bloodshot’s Director, Dave Wilson, shares “The concept of having a microscopic, robotic organism in our bodies that delivers medicine to a particular part of your body, that is not far away. We use that as a base and take a giant, scientific leap.”
Before writing Releasing Rage, I talked to a gazillion scientists
about how cyborgs could repair themselves and a few of the scientists had the
same suggestion. That suggestion was the basis for nanocybotics.
This is one of the (many) reasons why I’m cool with other
writers using nanocybotics and other ‘technology’ in their own stories. I based
these technologies on existing research. If other writers read the same research
or talk to the same scientists, they would likely have the same ideas. The ideas
aren’t truly mine. They belong to the research, to today’s information.

Testing Truth
A fun-loving cyborg gets serious about love.
***
Truth lives each moment as though it were his last. The
cyborg warrior rushes into danger, teases beings he shouldn’t provoke, accepts
every call of adventure he encounters.
When a prissy little human princess floats into the Rebel
structure Truth is occupying, seeking a mercenary to assist her and her unusual
entourage, he volunteers to be her warrior. She claims their assignment is
dangerous, warns him he might not survive the task.
That is exactly the type of fun he has been seeking.
Princess Nanette of the planet Royaume must rescue her
estranged brother from an enemy prison ship. That is her duty, and she has been
trained to always place the needs of her planet and her subjects before her
own. Nancy doesn’t have the freedom to indulge her passions for a certain
dark-haired, gray-skinned cyborg. Not permanently and not publicly.
But she is unable to resist the warrior. Truth, with his
laughing eyes, smiling lips, and rough hands, tempts her as no one else ever
has. He could be her one fleeting act of rebellion before she’s matched with
the powerful ruler her planet requires.
If they survive their current mission.
Their love is doomed. Their lifespans are at risk. This
cyborg and his princess will need the help of every ally they have if they wish
to see another sunrise.
